30A OCPD supplying 10-2 home run to water maintenance closet for well pump. 12-2 from disconnect to pressure switch contacts. 12-2 to (1.5 HP pump box-gizmo to protect pump). #12 jumpers field installed in box. #10 from box to pump.
How illegal is this, and was I justfied in ripping it down and replacing all the #12's with #10's in a righteous fury?
Edit to add: There is no control circuit. The conductors directly feeding the well pump go from 10 to 12 to 10 on a 30 amp breaker.
